So, I won ten pounds on a Christmas scratchcard. Nope I'm not feeling festive either, not yet anyway. I thought how I could spend this free ten pounds, and I chose to make good of the offers forced upon us because it is December, not Christmas just December.

HAUL ON!
Hopefully this will soothe my unruly hair. I have read lots about the Organix range and their packaging is a staple for shampoo shelves. I thought I would take the plunge, and in keeping with my strict sachet training I am going to make this travel sized bottle last. I can't be doing with drowning my hair in product, it's just far too fine.
It's so darn dry, the cold isn't helping.
See how dry my fringe is? That is the healthiest part of my hair, it gets a trim EVERY DAMN MONTH. Perhaps I am asking a lot, but we shall see.
My headphones were firmly in my ears. Beethoven Was Deaf being the album du jour I marched in to Superdrug to reap the rewards of their 3 for 2 offer and bought these for a scandalous seven pounds and ninety eight pence. Waterproof eyeliners are a winner in this weather with my eyes running from the cold. The red polish will do for the Christmas season nicely thank you very much!
Well we shall talk about the Bold Gold later but I cannot wait to try these eyeliners. They feel so luxurious and are heavy in pigment so you get a lovely bold colour. I have swatched them for you.
I think the black will take a bit of colouring in, luckily I have plenty of Rimmel's waterproof gel eyeliner to hand in case it does not fit the job.
Scandaleyes : always a sucker for a witty name.
Rimmel London Precious Stones 002 Ruby Crush.
Now I am not generally a fan of silverish glitter shades, I much prefer gold flecks. Anyhow I was intrigued by this polish, quite pleased with the coverage it gives. THIS IS NOT GLITTER SUSPENDED IN CLEAR POLISH. It is the other way around or something?
What do Barry M do best? Nail Paint. Look at this lovely high glitter count that I got free after spending six pounds on Barry M cosmetics.
It is all about the high glitter/holographic look this season I figure, so I am right in there!
[Obligatory arty splash]
So what did I spend my six pounds on to benefit from such a lovely offer? I only went and got a Barry M Bold Gold waterproof eyeliner to match my party dress. That way I can sob all the way through the Queen's speech and no one will notice.
Not really. What a vulgar picture I painted for you there. Crying over a speech. No way.
IT IS LIKE TINSEL IN A BOTTLE, 'NUFF SAID.
To top the whole lot off I went back to Superdrug and spent one hundred pennies on a MUA eyeshadow.
Personally I think it will suit my ultimate Christmas dress. I have seen such a beauty and one day, oh one day it will be mine. Let's see this eyeshowdow in its glory...
These have been recommended, as long as a good primer or base is used it gives a heavy and silky coverage. I can't wait to try all these products and see how they fare.
Have you got your party look sorted? I'd love to see your party look preparation so feel free to leave me links and comments!
So I spent a whole £15 and got my haul on. Lets see yours!
